After a bunch of product recalls related to items made in China, the Chinese government has reacted in its usual brutal manner. Many government officials responsible for quality have been executed. It has also been announced that many managers of factories where these products originated have "committed suicide". And now, they made the Mattel EVP (Mattel is the company that imported all those lead paint infested toys) apologize in public in China in a carefully choreographed public event. ?Mattel takes full responsibility for these recalls and apologises personally to you, the Chinese people and all of our customers who received the toys." He (Mattel EVP) added that Mattel now believed it had recalled more products than was justified and that items which may have met US safety standards had been taken off the shelves. Mr Li said this admission was "unacceptable", adding that "you cannot recall 10,000 products just because one is sub-standard". "
